Around the 300 mark or more if I had to guess.

A 1990 Mustang Motor came stock with 225 HP/300 torque.
With those heads, intake, and air filter .....you are probably close to 300.

275-300 crank hp is my guess too. Keep in mind at 2000lbs, 300hp is like 600hp in a 4000lbs car. Very quick car. More then likely as fast (or faster) then the original. Welcome aboard brother.
